After Telana’s been cleaning this for many hours in front of netflix, we uncovered the word ‘magic’ which helped to identify this salvaged find from the old Engineering company…

“The Royal Typewriter Company manufactured this Royal Magic Margin typewriter around 1940. The typewriter’s patented Magic Margin design allowed the typist to set both the left and right hand margins with a simple push of a lever. With easy margin-switching, the Royal KMM could easily address envelopes, tabulate figures, and create tables.”

Isn’t she a gem, especially for an 84 year old?

And thanks to this Alum-Clean from the @cleanshop.capetown (which is environmentally friendly) which helped with the rust bits.
